Adam
First man created
Adam is the biblical first man, created by God from dust in Genesis.
The name has become synonymous with origins and humanity itself: since Adam, Adam's apple (the throat cartilage, from the forbidden fruit).
The old Adam refers to sinful human nature.
As a common name, Adam remains widely used.
I don't know him from Adam means someone is completely unrecognizable.
